hope you guys are doing well.
Currently I am employed with a ME LCC. With 3000 hours as a FO. (A320)
my Pre-Command should start soon in a couple of months.
And
I have been invited by Emirates for a A380 FO position.
while I see alot of my colleagues from my current airline are going forward with EK.
I dont want to jump to a conclusion and think outside of the “Big Shiny Jets”.
If I was 1500 hours in and 23 years old. I would definitely go without a doubt.
But being 29 and recently married and with a prospect of becoming a Captain here soon. I find myself kinda in a pickle.
two options that come to my mind are
1- Take command first and get the experience. Then fulfill my dream of flying a legace with DEC.
2- Join EK get all the benefits, But forget about command for the next 7-8 years atleast.
your two cents will be appreciated.
thanks
Hi BusDriver,
I am in the exact same position as you, albeit a bit older and I have decided to go with EK. Can you please tell me via DM when were you called? I’m still stuck in the holding pool but with the same experience as you.
